A57 Snake Pass is a great road IMO. Much better than the EVO triangle. A82 from Inverness over Loch Ness is good too. :driver:

Thats near me  :innocent:
Get it done then, well worth it too. Also if you head North of Inverness towards Ullapool the roads are great too!  :happy2:

It's an amazingly technical bit of road once you know it enough to go fast, a real test of all aspects of a car's handling - but as for scenic, no.

I think it's entered into some kind of Stelvio/Transfagarasan/Col De Turini mythology, which it doesn't deserve. Good if you're in the area, not something I'd travel to especially.

If you've got a day, then do something like this...



I wouldn't even say it was that technical. That's what I was expecting and it wasn't which is why I posted up. Not about the scenery. I'm no Jenson Vettel either but I was still able to drive quick enough to make the wife sick without going over the NSL  :grin:

Maybe I need to go and drive it again on my own and i'll have a different view.

I'll see that and raise you Brett's in Headingley, Leeds. The missus lived just near it when at Uni and they're the best I've had. Fried in beef dripping FTW.

I had some fish and chips in Bridlington once.

Cooked in Beef dripping and a real shock for this shandy drinking southerner. Very good though.
